'''Peter Benjamin Parker''' is a photographer for the ''[[Daily Bugle]]'' newspaper under Editor-in-Chief [[Joe Robertson]]. Parker is ''also'' the friendly costumed hero '''Spider-Man'''. Spider-Man possesses the abilities of Earth arachnids, allowing him to fire thread-like projectiles from his wrists. These threads may be used to spin webs of near-limitless size, as well as to capture thieves and other assorted rogues in the selfsame manner as a spider entraps traditional insects. Those who wonder about his boundless strength would be advised to listen closely, as his spectacular might is the result of radioactive energy flowing through his very veins. The aforementioned web-like materials fired from his wrists can also be used as a means of swinging to and fro, meaning that those who wish to observe the Spider-Man in action can best do so by simply looking overhead. In addition, he is known to be primarily a nocturnal adventurer, appearing in the deep of night wherever evil is afoot. His alacrity is so great, his timing so amazing, he has been compared to a flash of light. Despite his best efforts and good intentions, it seems that his attempts at justice are often overlooked, and while other heroes may find celebrity and fortune, poor Parker is constantly in one hang-up or another. Regardless, the Spider-Man soldiers on; wherever there is a fight or ruckus or tussle, the Spider-Man can be found!

Sometimes he has a black costume, which he can control with his mind, and can shapeshift into normal clothes.

He's kind of a smartass.

===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
{{noteukonly}}
In [[1984]], in order to get exclusive photographs of the new [[Decepticon]] fortress in [[Oregon]], Peter Parker donned his Spider-Man costume and used his powers to sneak closer to the action. He intercepted [[Gears (G1)|Gears]], who had been sent on a scouting mission, and attacked, thinking Gears was one of the invaders. When [[Skywarp (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Skywarp]] threw a tank at a gaggle of unwary reporters, Gears saved them, convincing Spider-Man he was good.

[[File:Prisonerofwar webMegs.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|''Spins a web, any size''<br>''Doesn't work, now he dies!'']]
Spider-Man teamed up with the [[Autobot]]s to help rescue [[Sparkplug Witwicky]] from the [[Decepticon]]s. Spider-Man noted that he has had many adventures in his long history as a superhero. [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] replied that he is sure tales of his exploits would be interesting... they could possibly even be described as ''amazing''.

Spidey managed to get the Autobots past the army with a little subterfuge, which lasted about ten seconds. While the Autobots dealt with both the human army ''and'' some invading Decepticons, he and Gears made their way into the base. After dispatching the cassettes and [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]], the pair found Sparkplug, and [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]! He used his webbing to completely mummify Megatron, but it didn't hold for very long. Megatron blasted a hole in the floor of their base, so Gears, and Sparkplug would plummet to their deaths. Webbing saved Spider and Spark, but couldn't hold Gears's weight.

Spider-Man was aghast that the Autobots would treat their comrade's apparent death so nonchalantly. He followed the Autobots back to the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]], and Prime failed to explain in any adequate sense how Gears was neither dead nor alive right then. But Spider-Man couldn't stick around, so he left. {{storylink|Prisoner of War!}}

''Megatron referenced Spider-Man as a reason to observe and wait instead of attacking: he's showed not all humans were helpless, so others might be useful to the Decepticon cause.'' {{storylink|The Enemy Within!}}''

''[[Buster Witwicky (G1)|Buster Witwicky]] had a poster of Spider-Man in his room, perhaps as a reminder of the hero that co-saved his father.'' {{storylink|The Wrath of Guardian!}}

Later, Spider-Man had become an iconic figure wearing a different costume, featuring a red mask with a black spiderweb pattern. [[Noah Acton]] wears a T-shirt bearing his likeness, indicating either kid appeal or counterculture status. {{storylink|Decepticon Graffiti!}}

Having been turned away from the [[Transformer]]s' party, [[Colin Doobrey-Smiff|Colin]] and [[Semi-Automatic Steve|Steve]] called Spider-Man to invite him and his superhero chums to a party in the Combat Shed to celebrate [[Christmas]] [[1989]]. Hanging from the ceiling, Spidey quipped that it was crowded. {{storylink|Christmas with Combat Colin}}

===''Mini Mayhem!''===
Spider-Man was among the many super-heroes who threw a surprise party for Optimus, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.

Some jerk in a [[Spider-Man]] outfit led a legion of [[Clone trooper]]s to smash Bumblebee and [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]]'s [[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]] [[Transformers: Crossovers]] toys.

Later, Spider-Man was seen waiting in line in anticipation for the [[Transformers (film)|live-action Transformers film]]. {{storylink|Mini Mayhem!}}

===IDW Generation 1 continuity===
[[File:Megsandspidy.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb]]
As part of the [[Avengers]], Spider-Man traveled to [[Latveria]] to investigate [[Doctor Doom]]'s apparent attack on the neighboring country, [[Symkaria]]. Upon arrival, he and his fellow heroes found a dome-shaped structure emitting radiation and broke into it. Inside the building, they came under attack from automated laser turrets, and while Spider-Man was busy webbing them up and cracking jokes, he was suddenly electrocuted into submission and kidnapped by [[Runabout (G1)|Runabout]]. When he regained consciousness, he found himself strapped to a table by a giant robot named [[Megatron (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Megatron]], who explained that the hero was about to help him and his [[Decepticon]]s conquer the world. {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part One}} Megatron began extracting Spider-Man's radioactive blood, refining it into a powerful [[energon]] isotope that he used to supercharge his troops. All Spidey could do was lay there and weakly taunt him. {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part Two}}

[[Luke Cage]] and [[Ratchet (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Ratchet]] came to his rescue, but were promptly defeated by the charged-up Megatron. {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part Three}} However, after Megatron left to deal with the attacking Avengers and [[Autobot]]s outside, Spider-Man proved he still had enough strength to burst out of his restraints. After meeting with Ratchet and [[Prowl (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Prowl]], he agreed to power them up using Megatron's device as well. Ultimately, he didn't have to sacrifice even more blood, though, as [[Wolverine (superhero)|Wolverine]] offered to take his place. Spider-Man followed Ratchet and Prowl outside, where he webbed up Megatron in an attempt to stop him from escaping. It ultimately failed, but at least he made the Decepticon leader look mighty silly as he lay tied up and helpless on the ground! After everything was wrapped up, Spidey and the other Avengers returned home on the [[Quinjet]]. {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part Four}}

===''Crossovers''===
Unseen scientist [[Mister Fantastic]] constructed large, transforming [[Mech|battle armour]] for various superhumans; Spider-Man received two, one based on each of his costumes, both of which could transform into a high-speed motorcycle. It is likely Richards gained the idea from Spider-Man, as it is inconceivable the encounter with the Transformers wouldn't have a lasting impact on the vigilante.<ref>''Crossovers'' Motorcyle Spider-Man packaging bio</ref>

One sign of such an impact is that Spider-Man's activities seem to be focused solely on fighting [[Carnage|hostile]] [[Venom (Crossovers)|aliens]]. One of those aliens has somehow stolen and altered Spider-Man's loyal living costume; how he'll reclaim it is unknown. He clearly misses it, based on his second, black-painted armour!

Spider-Man later teamed up with fellow superhero [[Iron Man]], who built him a third battle suit—one that transformed into a helicopter and could combine with Iron Man's own bomber mech to form a "super jet".<ref>''Crossovers'' Spider-Man/Iron Man packaging bio</ref>

Iron Man apparently has a soft spot for the wall-crawler, as he constructed Spider-Man a ''fourth'' battle suit for when two wheels just aren't good enough. The transforming car mech can match Iron Man's suit in speed and is better armored than the original cycle suit.<ref>''Crossovers'' Race Car Spider-Man packaging bio</ref>

===Crossovers===
[[File:MarvelcrossoversSpider-man.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Is it perverted to think that this is actually a good likeness?]]
*'''Spider-Man''' (Marvel, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles

:''[[Transformers: Crossovers|Crossovers]]'' Spider-Man transforms into a red and blue motorcycle. He has a "webbing missile" launcher on each arm, and the missiles become twin exhaust pipes in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]]. Also, much of his transformation mirrors that of the 2007 movie [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]].

:[[Venom (Crossovers)|Venom]] is delightfully not a [[black repaint]] of him.

**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles

:A solid [[redeco]] of the above toy cast in solid black, including the formerly transparent parts (Er, yeah), with the white spider-logo of the 1980s black costume.

[[File:Crossovers-toy SpiderMan09.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Raise your hand if you're sure.]]
*'''Spider-Man''' (Marvel, 2009)

:Another redeco of the original toy, the 2009 edition of Spider-Man replaces the light blue parts with dark blue, akin to his film and some of his comic appearances. This release featured new box art of Spider-Man.

*'''Spider-Man / Iron-Man''' (Marvel two-pack, 2009)

:This Spider-Man toy transforms into a slim, high-speed helicopter with big underslung engine pods. He comes packaged with [[Iron Man]] (who transforms into a stealth bomber), and can combine with him in either mode to form a "giant super bomber"... or Spider-Man with a stealth bomber on his head.

*'''Spider-Man''' (Marvel, 2010)

:This Spider-Man toy transforms into a streamlined futuristic "Spider-Car" based loosely on a [http://www.automotoportal.com/article/peugeot-reveals-the-908-le-mans-race-car-at-the-paris-motor-show Peugeot 908 V12 HDi DPFS LeMans-style racer]. It is fairly compact and unfolds in to a roughly 7" tall robot with much more angular features than the original motorcycle version. Unlike nearly ever other ''Crossovers'' figure, this one lacks a [[gimmick]] of any kind other than being a transforming Spider-Man.

:The toy's instructions are also somewhat crazy as they go through the entire transformation sequence, then ends with a picture of Spider-Man transformed a totally different way from the waist down (resembling the picture on the back of the card). This was likely done because transforming him the correct way makes it impossible for him to stand without splaying his legs far out to the sides. The instructions also fail to note the step wherein his legs extend slightly to reveal double-jointed knees.

[[File:Crossovers-toy SpiderManHelicopter.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66 Mr Stark? I don’t feel so good...]]
*'''Spider-Man''' (Marvel, 2010)

:A single-packed version of the helicopter Spider-Man from the Iron Man combiner pack, differing only in the shades of red and blue used for the plastic. While he has no combiner buddy anymore, he can always be combined with the similarly single-packed flying wing [[War Machine]] toy, if you're so inclined.

==Notes==
*Including Spider-Man into "Prisoner of War!" as a sales boost was [[Jim Salicrup]]'s idea, as he was also the Spider-Man editor at the time.
*When Marvel approached Hasbro about the prospect of including Spider-Man in the third issue of the Generation 1 comic book, they initially turned the idea down, since Spider-Man was currently licensed to rival toy company Mattel for the ''Secret Wars'' toyline. Marvel convinced them to permit the appearance by putting Spidey in his black costume, whereas the ''Secret Wars'' toy was clad in his traditional red and blue, and therefore wouldn't be "advertised" by the comic.<ref>[http://moonbase2.madmooseforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=9377 Moonbase 2 podcast interview with Bob Budiansky]</ref> This meant adding a footnote to the story explaining that it took place prior to the recent issue of Spidey's own title in which he ditched the black threads upon finding out they were a [[Venom (Crossovers)|symbiote]].
*Reprints of Spider-Man's encounter with the [[Iron Man]] of 2020 were used as a back-up strip in [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|''The Transformers'' UK series]].
*Spider-Man's been voiced by several Transformers alumni in the past, including [[Dan Gilvezan]] in ''Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends'', [[James Arnold Taylor]] in ''Spider-Man: Friend or Foe'', [[Josh Keaton]] in ''The Spectacular Spider-Man'' (among other projects), and [[Robbie Daymond]] in ''Marvel's Spider-Man'' and ''Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite''.
*Spider-Man, along with the rest of Marvel's starring heroes, appeared in a special border on the cover of [[Heavy Traffic!|''Transformers'' #22]]. This border was included on all Marvel comics that month, celebrating Marvel Comics' 25th anniversary.
*The [[letters page]] for US Marvel Comics [[Deadly Obsession|issue #64]] declared ''[[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|The Transformers]]'' and Marvel Universes to be separate. In the process, it politely asked the readers to just forget about the issue guest-starring Spider-Man. But the [[Main Page|Wiki]] never forgets. The Marvel Database wiki notes that the Spider-Man from the issue therefore appears to be a paradox, as he has memories of events of the mainstream "616" universe, but lives in a realm where few 616 heroes and villains exist.
*In the ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Prime]]'' episode "[[Predatory]]", the sound effects used for when [[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]] spews her webbing are the same used for Spider-Man in the 2008 ''{{w|Spectacular Spider-Man (TV series)|Spectacular Spider-Man}}'' TV series.
*[[Arachnolord]] is seemingly implied to be the mirror version of Spider-Man.
